Description:

Blood's Will: Speculative Fiction, Existence, and Inquiry of Currere is an example of speculative fiction, and is a useful reading for courses examining roles of narrative, fiction and currere as fields of inquiry.

Review Quotes: "Blood's Will is a speculative fiction in the vampire subgenre that also functions as a philosophical meditation on curriculum inquiry (with particular reference to the autobiographical method now known as currere) and dramatizes ontological, epistemological, and axiological questions about human knowledges and understandings of living and dying. It is clearly informed by feminist, counter-heteronormative, and what I would call post-humanist positions. This book is a significant contribution to the literature of curriculum theorizing." --Noel Gough, Professor Emeritus at La Trobe University
